I've browsed the silicone casting from silicone mold threads in the past. So I thought all would be cool.
A couple of months ago, I was casting dragon skin silicone from a plaster cast, and the mold broke. Nothing big that can't be repaired. However, I thought it would be best to hold on to the last cast, and re-mold it, but this time with silicone.
Yesterday, I made a negative mold from the dragon skin silicone cast, giving it two coats of ease release 200. I then poured smooth-on Mold Max 30. This morning, I went to de-mold, and the two have sort of bonded… I managed to remove a corner with some force before heading off to work. I estimate it might take me an hour to separate the two later.
I had intended on casting some dragon skin silicone from the Mold Max 30 mold tonight, but am now fearful of a similar occurrence. Anyone have any tips, or have dealt with a similar problem?
